Hi and welcome
you said the breeder told you your Toby was champion sired...

in front of his sires name would be CH if he was, is that listed on the pedigree? If CH is not there then his dad wasnt a champ..

I suggest you do a deep search on your kids pedigree (your breeder should direct you and or answer many of your questions about where your Toby came from and enlighten you if ther was any hereditary problems). When using an outside stud many breeders will ask about your "little mans heritage" as well he should be tested for liver shunt (bile acid) and LP's.

Also when you register Toby order a DNA kit from AKC. He must be DNA'd if he sires more than 3 litters a year or 10 in a life time.

Hope your little man steps up and makes you proud growing up to be a well bred quality yorkie!

best of luck
